    • good idea take some pix and put them in a PDF read UPLOAD dx
    • thread title updated moved to overseas debt forum. sadly as they are outside any UK jurisdiction upon DCA rules which state in the UK they must not call employers, there not alot you can do to stop these scammers. make sure you totally make private ALL social media twitter/facebook/linked in etc etc as there no-way for them to findout where you work otherwise so you must have a leak somewhere. find it. your employer details arent even legally available to UK DCA's so how have they found it out to date???  simply write to the BANK informing them of your correct and current address ALWAYS!!. if you want to arrange payment or not TO THE BANK ONLY thats upto you. never ever ignore a Statutory Demand a Letter Of Claim a Court Claimform. if if if any of those ever happen. till then ignore and rewash. dx

    • Hello All,  I’m hoping someone can help me urgently here. Firstly, I’d like to say I have read multiple other threads and have some what an idea of what I should be doing, however my case might be slightly different so coming with my own questions here.    my situation is I lived in Dubai and had a credit card and a loan, loan with HSBC and credit card with Emirates (or the other way round), I lost my job and was forced to leave the country as I was staying in the country on my companies visa.    since coming back, after a few years 2 different debt collections agencies have been approaching me (one being IDRW and the other J&P). I’ve never answered IDRWW and they constantly chase me by calling and messaging me and my employer. My current company is ok with this as I explained the situation but I’m soon to be joining a new company who definitely won’t be ok with being messaged and called. I’m afraid to continue to ignore them as they may message and calm the new employer as they have before and I’ll lose my job. However, it seems clear from these forums that dealing with the debt collection agencies is never a good idea. You shouldn’t agree to the amount or pay anything.    j&p caught me on my phone but I still haven't sent them any money or confirmed the amount they’re saying is owed, they keep pushing to pay off the “principal” amount by making monthly payments, from reading these forums it seems like if I make one of those payments (they have provided bank details for ENBD), then it’ll just be paying off interest and not actually clearing the principle debt and the bank won’t even approve receipt of payment or that it’s coming off principle.    this is my predicament as ignoring them might not be an option if they chase my new employer. Maybe there’s a way to ensure the debt collection agency don’t contact my new employer?? I don’t know? Massively appreciate peoples help here. Thanks,

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

The first loan (I singed on 18th May 2007) This included insurance which brought the £11,000 loan up to £12,446.44. (NB - Welcome didn't supply this agreement as part of the SAR , i have posted up my own record copy)

 

After recieving the £11,000 cheque I cancelled the insurance.

 

Welcome said that they would 're-do' the agreement. This agreement was included in the SAR (£11,000, no insurance listed) This was done and signed by me on the 14th June 2007.

 

 

Fast forward to September 2008, they out of the blue ring me and offer me a "top up loan" as a valued customer. Stupidly I took up their offer and topped up my loan, so this cleared the £11,000 loan and gave me a new loan amount of £16347.91

 

This last agreement document was signed by me on the 24th Septemeber and then they signed it on the 28th september.... I genuinly cannot recall a cooling off period.

I *think* I signed the last agreement by post... I was due to go into branch but couldn't get the time off work, they tried to rearrange me to go in, but still couldnt get time off, so in the end they sent it by post and I had to 'drop it through their letterbox when i signed where they asked.

Oh crikey - I think I am even more confused!!!

 

Am i reading this right way... basically because the final loan was signed by me on the 24th September and by Welcome on the 28th September, I wasn't given the right of cancellation???

 

Does the above apply regardless of whether the docs were signed in branch or by post? I am sure I signed them at home but how do I prove this was the case?

 

Sorry if I am being thick!! (more than likely!)

Hi Postggj,

 

Yes - i guess you are right, the dates on the agreement are signed by Welcome 4 days after my signature!

 

Would that still be an issue if it was signed in the office?

 

From what I recall, I got the cheque 4/5 days after dropping off the paperwork (They made me go into the branch and physically collect the cheque - does that make any difference?)

 

Is there also any argument over the fact that the SAR didn't produce a copy of the very first agreement (the one for £12,464)... surely they should still produce a copy of this even though I cancelled the insurance,???

 

What is the end result here with all the above in mind... where do I stand and how do i prove it?

 

I am really worried they are going to create mayhem with my credit reports ( I get credit checked as part of my work each year, hence concerned!)

 

What would you recommend is my next step? is there a letter I can use for my circumstances?

 

 

Massive thanks for all your help Post, really is appreciated! :-)

OK - just got off the phone from my bank. They cannot tell me the date the cheque cleared in my account, but it looks like I paid the cheque into my account over the counter on the 1st October 2007.

 

I can ring back on Monday to get when it cleared in my account if you want??? (the department that deals with archived info isn't open at weekends)

If I recall correctly, I got a phonecall telling the that the manager had signed the cheque and that it was ready to collect. I went that evening jsut before they closed and collected it. I would have banked it straight away, so probably the next day.

I have noticed that on one of the secured loan statements that they gave me via SAR (by the way, not sent any prior to the SAR!) that it is itemised "28/09/07 - TRANSFER - CREDIT £11347.91"

I presume that is the internal transfer they did to clear the old loan....

 

 

That would tie in, as the 28/09/07 was a Friday. The 1st October was a Monday, and that is when barclays say i paid in the cheque over the counter....

I have been looking at this more closely today, from their own paperwork (statmements) it looks like they did an internal transfer to clear the previous account and also issued the remainder to me (ie cheque)

 

Postggj- is there a standard letter I need to send them?? They are no longer considering the account in dispute, and obviously I still think its fishy!!!

 

Are they likely to put markers on my credit files? ( i am not currently paying them.)
